Al Na'ir V—commonly referred to simply as Al Na'ir—is the fifth planet in the Al Na'ir system.  The world possesses vast mineral resources and has at various times in history served as the local Prefecture capital world for both the Draconis Combine and the [[Republic of the Sphere]]. Al Na'ir has been home to a number of major industrial facilities, some of which included facilities located on asteroid belts within the system. Al Na'ir has a single moon named Taliswan.<ref name=FCCW202/><ref name=DARW26/>

Al Na'ir V was originally settled by the [[Azami]] in the [[twenty-fifth century]]<ref name="HKp118">''House Kurita (The Draconis Combine)'', p. 118: "Islam"</ref> to gain access to the rich resources available on the planet.<ref name=DARW26/>

====First Succession War====
+
===3067<ref name=FCCW202/>===
When the Dragon took control of Al Na'ir and integrated the [[Arkab Legions]] into the [[Arm of the Dragon]], the Combine created the [[School for Cultural Investigation]] on Al Na'ir's surface. This school was popular with many members of the Combine nobility and higher-educational system as it was one of the few places that the Combine approved of "foreigners."<ref name=DARW26/>

===3025 to 3050 to 3062 to 3067===
The vast mineral wealth and relatively open nature of the system made it a key strategic asset for the Dragon by the 3050s. Though raided many times by the [[Federated Suns]] and later the [[Federated Commonwealth]], the Dragon retained control of the system and the population had suffered relatively few attacks.

====Jihad====

===3079===
During the [[Jihad]], however, that changed forever. The [[Word of Blake]] sent large numbers of [[aerospace fighter]]–carrying [[DropShip]]s and [[Pocket WarShip]]s to the system. These Blakist units scoured the asteroid belts, destroying the Yori 'Mech Works assembly lines and inflicting severe losses on the population by destroying their domed cities.<ref name=DARW26/> By mid-March [[3069]], Al Na'ir had been conquered by the Blakists and incorporated into the [[Word of Blake Protectorate]].<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 46: "The Jihad In Review"</ref>

:- At this point in time the 2nd Wolf Lancers were operating at 25% of full strength.
  
Having been occupied by the Word of Blake, Al Na'ir was targeted for liberation by the allied coalition assembled by [[Devlin Stone]]; coalition forces assaulted Al Na'ir on 1 July [[3076]] as one of four planetary assaults on Protectorate worlds that took place simultaneously, with the other strikes targeting the [[Rio]], [[Rochelle]], and [[Van Diemen IV]] systems.<ref name="JHS:Tp22">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 22: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp56">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 56: "The Jihad In Review"</ref>

After the Jihad Al Na'ir was made the capital world of Prefecture II within the Republic of the Sphere. The Prefecture's capital city was built on Cedar Rock (the largest continent) and named Phoenix. The planet's traditional capital city, Homai-Zaki, was also rebuilt by the Republic and is also located on Cedar Rock.<ref name=DARW26/>

Following the [[Blackout]] Al Na'ir was reclaimed by the Draconis Combine in June [[3135]]. During the conquest, the [[Benjamin Military District]] [[Tai-shu (rank)|Warlord]] [[Mitsura Sakamoto]] ordered the breaching of Phoenix Dome, killing thirty million inhabitants.<ref name=ER:3145p18/><ref>''Daughter of the Dragon'', ch. 26</ref> So many skilled workers were killed in the atrocity that even a decade later the [[Scarborough Manufacturers]] plant was still affected.<ref>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 50: "State of Combine readiness: Industrial Strength"</ref>

During its time as a member of the Republic of the Sphere, Al Na'ir served as the capital world of Prefecture II. A harsh world rich in mineral resources, the world was only settled to gain access to its vast resources. Before it was part of the Republic, several [[Draconis Combine]] armaments manufacturers built factories on this world.
  
====3062====
+
In addition to the vital military production lines, Al Na'ir also boasted one of the few locations in the xenophobic Combine where another culture could exist. Al Na'ir was originally settled by the [[Azami]], better known as the warriors who made up the fearsome [[Arkab Legion]]s. When the Dragon took control of Al Na'ir and integrated the Arkab Legions into the Arm of the Dragon, the Combine created the School for Cultural Investigation on Al Na'ir's surface. This school was popular with many members of the Combine nobility and higher-educational system as it was one of the few places that the Combine approved of "foreigners".<ref name=DARW23/>

The vast mineral wealth and relatively open nature of the system made it a key strategic asset for the Dragon by the 3050's. Though raided many times by the [[Federated Suns]] and later the [[Federated Commonwealth]], the Dragon retained control of the system and the population had suffered relatively few attacks. During the [[Jihad]], however, that changed forever. The [[Word of Blake]] sent large numbers of [[AeroSpace Fighter]]-carrying [[DropShip]]s and [[Pocket WarShip]]s to the system. These Blakist units scoured the asteroid belts, destroying Yori MechWorks assembly lines and inflicting severe losses on the population by destroying their domed cities.<ref name=DARW23/> By mid-March [[3069]] Al Na'ir had been conquered by the Blakists and incorporated into the [[Word of Blake Protectorate]].<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 46, "The Jihad In Review"</ref>

Having been occupied by the Word of Blake, Al Na'ir was targetted for liberation by the allied coalition assembled by [[Devlin Stone]]; coalition forces assaulted Al Na'ir on the 1st of July [[3076]] as one of four planetary assaults on Protectorate worlds that took place simultaneously, with the other strikes targetting the [[Rio]], [[Rochelle]] and [[Van Diemen IV]] systems.<ref name="JHS:Tp22">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 22, "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp56">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 56, "The Jihad In Review"</ref>

After the Jihad Al Na'ir was made the capital world of Prefecture II. The Prefecture's capital city was built on Cedar Rock (the largest continent) and named Phoenix. The planet's traditional capital city, Homai-Zaki, was also rebuilt by the Republic and is also located on Cedar Rock.<ref name=DARW23/>
